    41The Philistine came closer and closer to David, with his shield bearer walking in front of him.

    42When the Philistine looked and saw David, he despised him, for David was just a young man, ruddy and handsome in appearance.

    43The Philistine said to David, 'Am I a dog, that you come at me with sticks?' And he cursed David by his gods.

    44Then he said to David, 'Come here, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the sky and the wild animals of the field.'

    45David replied to the Philistine, 'You come against me with a sword, spear, and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the LORD of Hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.'

    46'Today, the LORD will deliver you into my hand. I will strike you down and cut off your head. I will give the corpses of the Philistines’ army today to the birds of the sky and the wild animals of the earth. Then the whole world will know that there is a God in Israel.'

    47'And all those gathered here will know that it is not by sword or spear that the LORD saves; for the battle belongs to the LORD, and He will give you into our hands.'
